Answer:

154,897 REGISTERED LABRADOR RETRIEVERS WERE THERE

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the statement: IN 1999, THERE WERE 9860 GREAT DANES REGISTERED WITH THE AMERICAN KENNEL CLUB.

Also, THE NUMBER OF REGISTERED LABRADOR RETRIEVERS WAS 6997 MORE THAN FIFTEEN TIMES THE NUMBER OF REGISTERED GREAT DANES

Let x represents the number of Great Danes registered and y represents the number of Labrador retrievers registered.

The statement:

"Fifteen times the number of registered great Danes " means 15x

and

"6997 more than fifteen times the number of registered great Danes" means 15x + 6997

then as per the given statement:

x = 9860 .

To solve for y;

y = 15x+ 6997

Substitute the value of x we get;

Simplify:

y = 154,897

Therefore, the registered Labrador Retrievers were there are; 154,897

The population of a city is 250,000 and the annual growth rate is 2.2%. Write an equation to model the population y after x year
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

y= 250000(1.022)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of a city is 250,000 and the annual growth rate is 2.2%

General equation for exponential growth is

y= P(1+r)^x

Where y is final population and P is the initial population

'r' is the rate of growth and x is the number of years

p = 25000 and r= 2.2%= 0.022. Replace all the values in the general equaiton

y= P(1+r)^x

y= 250000(1.022)^x
